""Pale ruby with lovely crunchy fruit on the nose, this is a beautifully light, refreshing, clean wine with nice length. A lovely blend of Bordeaux's traditional varieties each adding their unique identity. 50% Merlot for flesh, 25% Cabernet Franc adds spice, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon gives backbone and 5% Petit Verdot for colour and perfume. A simple unoaked wine with delicious ripe tannins that is already drinking beautifully. Wonderful value. 14%
